After returning to Zhuxiyuan, the maid soon brought fresh and still steaming goat's milk cake.
The smell of milk cake is tangy, and it smells even more fragrant in winter.
Brother Cheng sat on the chair, dangling his two calves, couldn't wait to pick up the milk cake and ate it together. Two shallow dimples were looming on his face, and he was very happy to eat.
Zhang Ruoruo smiled and handed a cup of tea to his son, and advised softly: "Eat slowly, be careful not to choke. Take a sip of tea."
"Okay, mother."
Brother Cheng obediently took it and took a sip. He had eaten not long ago. Although his stomach was already a little full, seeing his mother looking at him with hope, he could only continue to eat. After a few pieces, I couldn't eat any more, so I whispered that I was full.
Seeing that there were only two pieces of pastries left on the plate, Zhang Ruoruo was also happy that his son liked to eat them, and he laughed and chatted with his son for a while. The two of them laughed and made a fuss.
Guiyuan glanced inside and saw that the relationship between mother and son was very good. It was obvious that she quietly withdrew.
Whenever Brother Zhuxiyuan Cheng is around, no one is allowed to come in and disturb him.
Last time, a maid didn't know the rules and actually went in to bother Aunt Zhang with some trivial matters while Brother Cheng was there. Aunt Zhang immediately scolded her with a dark face and made her kneel on the porch for a long time.
By now everyone has a long memory and won't go in easily.
The sky was getting dark, and when it was time for dinner, I originally planned to have dinner with my son that night, and then asked Guiyuan to call Mei Yuanqing, which would be a family reunion.
Zhang Ruoruo had a slight smile on his face when he thought of this, and he was already thinking about ordering the kitchen to cook some dishes that his husband and son would like to eat in the evening.
It was snowing outside, and the snow was gradually getting deeper. When I stepped on it, the snow actually covered my calves, making it very inconvenient to walk.
Guiyuan had just walked out of the yard after receiving her fate. Her feet sank into the snow, and she walked out very slowly.
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard door, he saw Mei Yuanqing walking towards him with a cold face.
She quickly bowed her head and said hello.
"Master..."
Guiyuan called out in a low voice, but Mei Yuanqing walked past her without even looking at her.
This was something that didn't happen in the past. As the eldest maid next to Aunt Zhang, she was still very proud outside. Therefore, Mei Yuanqing was different from other ordinary servants and always gave her a little respect.
But today........
Guiyuan had a bad premonition, her chest was beating "bang bang", and she had a vague feeling that something was about to happen...
She turned around and saw that Mei Yuanqing's figure had already walked to the corridor, and she quickly followed him.
I almost fell to the ground several times.
"Crunch."
The door of Zhuxiyuan was pushed open.
"Guiyuan, why did you come back so soon today? Did you give the orders in the kitchen... Brother Cheng likes tender mutton and also likes a mutton soup. He ordered the kitchen to stew it well. The meat must be soft and rotten before it tastes good. ....." Zhang Ruoruo kept sewing while Brother Cheng fell asleep on the couch.
After talking for a long time, Guiyuan didn't respond, so she suddenly raised her head and frowned.
He was wearing a green brocade robe, embroidered with green bamboos, standing tall and straight, who else could it be if he wasn't Mei Yuanqing.
There was a bit of joy on her face, she put down the needle and thread in her hand and went forward. I was thinking about the speed of longan today. When I go back to hand out the monthly routine, I will give out 10% more.
When she walked up to Mei Yuanqing, she reached out to hold her, with a look of tenderness on her face that could make people sick.
As a result, his arm barely touched the opponent's arm and was dodged.
She looked up, her beautiful eyes full of confusion.
Mei Yuanqing was furious in her heart and was unmoved by Zhang Ruoruo's eyes. She even felt a little bored in her heart.
He always looks so...ignorant and fearless, which is really annoying.
He stood there and said coldly: "Where's Brother Cheng? Let him come out to see me."
"Sir, what happened? My brother is asleep inside now. If you have anything to do, wait until he wakes up..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted coldly by Mei Yuanqing, "Now, immediately, go and call that unfilial son out."
The tone was cold to the bone, with a hint of anger. Zhang Ruoruo shivered violently, feeling scared, but still walked in.
Brother Cheng was fast asleep on the couch. There was a brazier next to him, and the room was very warm.
Zhang Ruoruo sat by the couch and looked at his son sleeping soundly. He couldn't bear it. After being silent, he still stretched out his hand to push him.
Brother Cheng's mouth moved, but he still didn't wake up. He turned over and fell asleep again.
"Brother, get up quickly, your father wants to see you for something..." Zhang Ruoruo called him softly.
Brother Cheng muttered in confusion: "I'm sleepy, I want to sleep..."
Zhang Ruoruo was in trouble, and Mei Yuanqing walked into the inner room at some point behind him. He looked at his son on the couch with anger in his eyes and angrily said, "You traitor, why don't you get up."
His voice was so loud that Brother Cheng on the couch suddenly opened his eyes and sat up with an innocent look on his face.
"Father......."
He didn't know why his father was angry, let alone what mistake he had made, and he opened his eyes in confusion.
"I ask you why you threw away the lucky beans your mother gave you. Did you not like it?"
"What lucky beans..."
He has not yet woken up, and his mind is very unclear. His mind is full of lucky beans and what they are.
Mei Yuanqing took out something from his cuff. The lucky bean was carved from fine jade material, crystal clear. He waved it on Mei Yuanqing's slender fingers, and through the light, you could still see its crystal clear water color.
But such a good bean has a very conspicuous chip on it, which affects its beauty.
Zhang Ruoruo was the first to think of Brother Cheng and was panicked. He only looked at Brother Cheng on the bed, as if he didn't want him to say anything.
As soon as Brother Cheng saw Fu Dou, he looked at Zhang Ruoruo and saw what he didn't understand when he saw the look in her eyes.
He lowered his head and murmured for a long time without saying a word.
Seeing her son's appearance, Mei Yuanqing felt indescribably disappointed.
Just now I saw that he took it with a very happy expression on his face, but he threw it away like this, which shows his character.
What big things can happen in the future?
Brother Cheng has done many wrong things in the past, but nothing like this incident made him as disappointed and sad as today.
His son might not study diligently enough, or he might be a little naive or stupid, but the two faces in front of him and behind him made him feel inexplicably angry.
I couldn't help but reflect on when my son was raised crooked.
